Thank you for the inspiration.

I only stated the obvious because it seemed to have been overlooked.

You should use Captain 401(k) at some point:

I think this is the key to much of the economic history of the country and our phenomenal growth. We have relatively well off working people, and often have had a lot of decentralized capital. Thanks to the frontier, the distribution of land in the US in the 19th century was amazingly democratic compared to the rest of the world. To be able to do something like that today!

If you could create a country how would you set up its tax structure?

I was thinking of Captain Jack Sparrow when I chose the name, but couldn't remember the sparrow part and didn't think Captain Jack had the right connotation. I didn't realize there would be so many Captains.

This makes about as much sense as saying that if a corporation thinks that the government's tax laws amount to double taxation, it should just pay what it thinks is equitable instead.

Tax the Rich: Why not.
 

I agree with but I also think it is that so many immigrants make it big here (like Carnegie) that our economy attracts the best entrepenerus from around the planet. Other countries drive them out and we suck them in.

What I don't get is the obsession in my party of some of the people to protect wealthy tax payers. It is bizarre. And it is not the wealthy country club Republicans that are obsessed with tax cuts for the rich, it is more of the middle class Republicans. It is like it is some moral crusade or something. The point behind low taxes is to stimulate the economy so the rising tide lifts all boats. It is not to stop the government from "unfairly taxing" the rich.

It is like free trade an capitalism. We don't have them to help a few get rich, it is because free trade and capitalism, when instituted properly, benefits every strata of society.

Tax policy should be engineered so that growth can be optimized. If you can get more tax money out of the rich while you are doing that, that is the best of all worlds. Taxes are a necessary evil. It sucks that we have to tax rich people. But it sucks even more that we have to tax poor people.

The point is to increase growth while taxing the poor people as little as possible.

Tax the Rich: Why not.
 

Your repetitiveness makes me think you maybe have aspirations of being a Bush speechwriter?

McDermott is the lowest level of scumbag treasonous piece of cat-shite. In a just world a Radical Islamic would fly a plane into him, although I imagine when the dems hand over the keys to the Ayotallahs when they get a chance that a guy like McDermott would be one of the first that they behead. After Hillary.

Your stupidity makes me think you are Biden's alter ego.

this would point to you trying to get your friend to open his vineyard to the public, or at least letting some of us in.
